You put it in your question, right? I’d like to see a study that EXPLICITLY correlates political views and activism with measures of ‘bad science’ like no citations, impossible reproducibility etc
- traverseda 7y agoI found a preprint of a study examining exactly that. I haven't had a chance to really read through it in depth though, so I can't speak to whether or not it's actually a good paper. https://psyarxiv.com/6k3j5/ https://psyarxiv.com/6k3j5/ My naive first skim seems to demonstrate that political slant does have an effect on reproducibility, although it doesn't matter if that ideological slant is conservative or liberal. It's not much, but it was tricky to find and it is what you're looking for. More research is needed.
